Absolutely. Neither I am. I subscribed to ask help to finding a paper
about Go (the origin of this thread), that Marcel and Andreis kindly

So deep down I think that first capture isn't that hard.

I also think that what makes real go that hard is ko, but you've shown that
it's equivalent to ladder, which frankly baffles me. I'd love to understand
that.

You've done great combinatorics work and great small scale work.

What's your thinking about interesting problems forward?

polite...

I'm not going to get into an argument about usage (and I hope no one else
